Episode notes

Is India the Best Emerging Market for Entrepreneurs? In this episode of Everyday Empires, Rohit sits down with The Power Couple, Mike Melli and Sanskruti Mehta - two American entrepreneurs who moved to India independently, spotted gaps in the market, and built their respective empires. Mike Melli is the founder of MissMalini Entertainment, one of India’s most influential digital media platforms, and The Good Creator Co., a creator-first talent and brand agency. Sanskruti Mehta is the founder of US-based FrostroX Jewelry and the Managing Director of Shashvi Agencies, bringing international men’s jewellery brands like INOX Jewelry to the Indian market. Though married, Mike and Sanskruti run separate businesses, navigating entrepreneurship, parenthood, and life in India on their own terms. In this conversation, they open up about: • Why they both saw opportunity in India and chose to move from the US • Building businesses as outsiders in India, and why they believe they're always a “guest” in the country.
